Extra Curricular Activity: QuietMix #1

QuietMix

As I have a week off work,
I decided to do something creative last night. The intention was to create a new piece of
music myself. So I started by creating a playlist of interesting sounds that I
would use for inspiration (is that cheating?)….. Well anyway, inspiration was not forthcoming, so instead
here is an ambient mix of the (not so) inspirational pieces presented as an
experimental chill-out collage.

I've not given up on my own piece (in fact, I've included one of my own tracks in the mix which I recorded earlier this year), and will post whatever I come up with right here later in the week.This will not be broadcast on Sine FM, but if I get enough positive feedback, I may consider doing something similar fro the radiowaves in future!

Oliver Wallace - Curiosity Leads to Trouble (fragment)

Virgin Prunes - Third Secret

Ray Nobel & his Orchestra - Butterflies in the Rain (fragment)

Apart from my earlier 90's mix-tapes constructed on a TEAC 4 track, this is my first attempt at creating a continuous immersive mix, so any feedback would be appreciated!
